Here are the top stories today in Manchester:

1. The full Manchester Primary election results are in! Who won? Who lost? The polls closed in Manchester on Tuesday at 7:30 p.m. Even with a low primary turnout, Republicans and Democrats ran competitive races. Here are the final numbers: (WMUR)
2. Kids are back in school, and many parents are wondering how they can make sure they are safe. In the recent Rosen Reports, WMUR's Chief National Consumer Correspondent Jeff Rossen shows you his favorite safety apps to track his kids and their screen time. Rosen wrote about an app called Life360, a free app that tracks your child’s location, "which can be really helpful if they walk to and from school." What about screen time? Well, there's an app for that — and guess what it's called? Screen Time! This free app monitors your child’s phone usage and screen time, and you can even see what apps they’re on and for how long. Some of the other features include setting daily time limits, also instantly pausing their device, and kids "can also earn more screen time by doing special tasks set by the parent." (WMUR)
3. It's fall, and that means a new season at The Palace Theater. With the first show on Sept. 17 at 2 p.m. catch a performance of "Disney’s The Little Mermaid" "based on one of Hans Christian Andersen’s most beloved stories and the classic animated film 'Disney’s The Little Mermaid.'" This is a "hauntingly beautiful love story for the ages." With music by eight-time Academy Award winner, Alan Menken, you will hear memorable songs, including “Under the Sea,” “Kiss the Girl” and “Part of Your World.” (The Palace Theatre)
